Unit Makes Touchscreen Easier

  • 10/01/96
Leightronix has introduced one of the industry's first programmable touchscreen-event controllers, the TS-16. Standard features include machine control for 16 VCRs, an internal 16x4 true-matrix video and stereo audio routing switcher, Event Manager software and a five-year warranty. An interactive touchscreen and LCD display presents users with large visual prompts while guiding them through system setup and programming. The unit is equipped with an RS-232 port for direct connection to a PC or modem, and remote programming is easily accomplished with the firm's DOS or WinEMLT Event Manager software. The TS-16 provides the power of 1,000 battery-protected events, and each event is referenced to the unit's internal clock. Leightronix, Inc., Holt, Michigan, (517) 694-8000.
